Listen Later

In this emotionally charged episode, I take you on a profound journey through the intertwining paths of Alzheimer's and heart-wrenching grief. Drawing from my personal experiences, I open up about the relentless struggle to find resources and support for my mother after her Alzheimer's diagnosis. The challenges seemed insurmountable, yet love and determination pushed us forward.

But this tale isn't just about Alzheimer's; it's also a story of unspeakable loss and the search for answers after the disappearance of my beloved daughter and the heartbreaking events surrounding her murder. The parallels between these two devastating chapters are haunting and awe-inspiring.

As I navigate these emotionally charged waters, I share how our family clung to hope, resilience, and the strength found within each other. It's a testament to the human spirit, showing how the heart can withstand immense pain and still find a way to heal.

Join me in this raw and vulnerable episode, where I shed light on the darkness of Alzheimer's and grief. In these stories, I'll explore the profound connection between these life-altering experiences and discover the transformative power of love, hope, and remembrance in the face of unimaginable adversity.
